Rohit Sharmais navigating one of the toughest phases of his Test career. The Indian captain's prolonged slump in form has raised serious questions about his future in the longest format. His struggles were glaringly evident during the ongoing Border-Gavaskar Trophy, particularly in Melbourne, where he failed to make an impact with the bat.
Despite his promotion to the top of the order, Rohit’s fortunes haven’t changed. Over his last 14 innings, he has managed just 152 runs, with his recent scores reading 3, 6, 10, and 3. India, under Jasprit Bumrah’s captaincy, secured a commanding 295-run victory in the first Test at Perth.
Batting legend Sunil Gavaskar voiced his concern, saying, “Tough times for him. There will be a second innings and two more in Sydney. Questions will be asked if he doesn't score in those three innings.”
Netizens have been vocal about their disappointment, with many questioning Rohit's temperament and energy on the field.
“Out of form is one thing, but Rohit Sharma is giving negative energy now,” one user wrote.
“If Rohit Sharma plays another Test match for India, it's a disgrace,” another fan commented reflecting his growing frustration.
Amidst this backlash, chief selector Ajit Agarkar has reportedly arrived in Melbourne for discussions regarding Rohit Sharma’s future in Test cricket. While nothing is confirmed yet, these developments suggest that tough decisions could be on the horizon.
For now, the cricketing world awaits Rohit’s response in the upcoming innings—a make-or-break moment for the Indian captain.
